Go out the back side of the hotel, turn left, walk two blocks! That{s it!

Dame Jan is freaking out about some stuff. She{s a driven woman I tell you. I{m thinking of medicating her! We really need the help of someone who speaks Spanish. Seriously.

Basquo and Santi, could you possibly come early?

She also got her hair cut today. Christ, you would have thought they were removing a kidney the way she went on about, what if they do this? What if they do that? Lord that woman (whom I adore, but she{s still a controller! Sheesh)

BTW, the weather has been WARM, last night we did have a spectacular thunder and lightning storm. I turned off the lights in my room, opened the curtains, and just sat there and watched it. WOW!

I may have to ask one of you to guide the visit to the Zona Rosa, everytime I step out the door of the hotel I get turned around. I{m completely disorieted. (it doesn{t help that the damn streets run every which way, and most major intersections have cars coming at you from 6 different directions). (Did I mention Jan lost her damn shoe in the middle of one of these intersections? I did the rational thing and kept running for my life, when I got to the other side I looked around and she wasn{t there. I turned around and there she was, standing in the middle of the street trying to get her shoe back on with cars zooming all around her. )

Who hates this keyboard, cause nothing is where it{s supposed to be. and I can{t figure out how to make the apostrophe work to save my life. BUT I DID FIND THE LIQUOR STORE!

Coming from Kentucky (where liquor is our birthright), finding the liquor store is essential! RAB...have you decided whether or not we can consume ice, at least at our hotel? I can rough it without ice... but it seems so primitive. Of course, there is always beer (cervesa as they call it down there.)

I am doing my best to pack lightly... never easy! Of course, I must make room for all of my electronic gadgets (and more importantly, their adapters!)

Getting very excited now about greeting you all on Wednesday!

I have used the hotel ice. You have to order it from room service though (no cost, just a tip)

Did you ask if the ice is made with purified water (i.e. water safe for American tourists?) I had a bad bout of margaritas in Tijuana once and have never forgotten how sick I got...doing my best to avoid a repeat of that catatstrophe.

Still packing.....

Hey Gary

You bet your sweet bippy I asked, several times. The hotel claims they have their own purification system, and so far, I am still alive. So I feel confident in saying the ice is safe, but I have to admit I have yet to drink from the tap.
